Freudian Slip? Obama Says Government Health Care Will Introduce “Greater Inefficiencies”

A bit of accidental truth for your Monday afternoon:

“The reforms we seek would bring greater competition, choice, savings and inefficiencies to our health care system,” Obama said in remarks after a health care roundtable with physicians, nurses and health care providers. “And greater stability and security to America’s families and businesses.”
The White House quickly recognized the mistake and inserted a “sic” in the remarks sent to reporters on Monday afternoon.

A slip of the tongue for Obama, clearly, but given what the government has done to existing health care programs like Medicare and Medicaid it was more accurate than what he meant to say.

    Nothing is more inefficient than govt run enterprise.

    Really if he knew what he was saying and didn’t rely on the teleprompter this wouldn’t happen.

    I’m just saying.

    I guess it’s a presidential thing.

    “Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.”

    Don’t guys concerned with security think about what-ifs? I mean we sure don’t want another incident like 9/11 where they were saying “gee who da thunk they’d do something like that.”

    Tom Clancy actually. But

    You’ve got Obama now.
    Barak will have to leave Washington and go to work for Jeff Sessions in Alabama.

    Conservatives, bereft of influence, slide into irrelevance.
